Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to electrical fuses and particularly to surface mount fuses employing thin film technology.
  • SMD surface mount devices
  • Fuses serve an essential function on many circuit boards. By fusing selected sub-circuits and even certain individual components it is possible to prevent damage to an entire system which may result from failure of a local component. For example, fire damage to a mainframe computer can result from the failure of a tantalum capacitor; a short in a single line card might disable an entire telephone exchange.
  • circuit board fuses The required characteristics for circuit board fuses are small size, low cost, accurate current-sensing, very fast reaction or blow time and the ability, in the case of time lag fuses, to provide surge resistance.
  • thin film technology provides a high level of control of all fuse parameters, thus making possible economical standard and custom fuse designs meeting a wide range of fusing requirements.
  • thin film technology enables the development of fuses in which both electrical and physical properties can be tightly controlled.
  • the advantages of the technology are particularly evident in the areas of physical design, repeatability of fusing characteristics and I 2 t "let-through".
  • present techniques allow line width resolution below 1 ⁇ m and control of layer thickness to 100 ⁇ , the fabrication of true miniature SMD fuses having standard (for example, 1.6 ⁇ 0.8 mm) and non-standard package sizes are made possible.
  • a method of manufacturing a thin film surface mount electrical fuse in which, first, a uniform thin metal film of aluminum is deposited by sputtering or the like on a surface of an insulating substrate. The thickness of the film is dependent upon, among other things, the fuse rating. Selected portions of the thin metal film are then removed by photolithographic techniques to define a repetitive pattern comprising a plurality of identical fuse elements each comprising a pair of contact portions interconnected by a fusible link having a width smaller than that of the contact portions. The structure is then passivated and an insulating cover plate of glass is bonded by epoxy over the passivation layer.
  • the assembly formed by the preceding steps is next cut into strips along end planes normal to the surface of the substrate, each strip including a series of side-by-side fuses. This cutting step exposes edges of the contact portions of each fuse element along the end planes of the strips. Conductive termination layers are deposited over the end planes thereby electrically connecting the terminations to the exposed edges of the contact portions. Last, the strips are cut transversely into individual fuses.
  • the photolithographic production method allows a great variety of fuse element designs and substrate types to be combined for creating a wide range of fuse chips. Moreover, critical parameters such as fuse speed can be programmed to optimally satisfy application requirements. Finally, the hermetic structure of the thin film fuse provided by the sealing glass cover plate imparts excellent environmental reliability.
  • the passivation layer may comprise chemically vapor deposited silica or, for improved yield and lower cost, a thick layer of printed glass.
  • the terminations preferably comprise solder coated metal layers extending around corners bounding the end planes of the fuse to form mounting lands.
  • each termination may comprise a coating of low melting point metal or alloy over a layer of a highly conductive metal such as silver or copper.
  • the conductive layer dissolves in the low melting point metal or alloy. Because the molten layer does not wet glass, discontinuities appear in the layer thereby breaking the electrical connection between the termination and the fuse element. In this fashion, both electrical and thermal fusing mechanisms are provided.
  • FIG. 1 is a side elevation view, in cross section, of a fuse in accordance with the present invention
  • FIG. 2 is a cross section view of the fuse of FIG. 1 as seen along the line 2--2;
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 are top plan views of a treated substrate illustrating stages of manufacture of fuses in accordance with the invention
  • FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a composite, multilayer strip including multiple fuses, illustrating another stage in the manufacture of the fuses;
  • FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the strip of FIG. 5 following the application of termination layers including a solder coating
  • FIG. 7 is a top plan view of a treated substrate illustrating a stage of fabrication in accordance with an alternative method of manufacture.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show a thin film SMD fuse 10 in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention. (It will be evident that the thicknesses of the various layers of the structure shown in the drawings have been greatly exaggerated for clarity.)
  • the fuse 10 includes a substrate 12, preferably a glass plate having a thickness, for example, of about 20-30 mils.
  • the substrate has a lower surface 14 and an upper planar surface 16 coated with a thin film of metal, such as aluminum, configured to define one or more fuse elements 18.
  • the metallic film may have a thickness ranging from 0.6 or less to 4.5 ⁇ m or more.
  • the fuse element 18 comprises a pair of contact portions 20 interconnected by a fusible link 22 having a width substantially smaller than that of the contact portions 20.
  • a fuse element having a 0.2 amp rating may have an overall length of 116 mils, a width of 51 mils and a fusible link having a length of 10 mils and a width of 1 mil.
  • the thickness of the thin film for such a fuse may be 0.6 microns.
  • a silica passivation layer 24 Protecting the thin film fuse element 18 and the surrounding portions of the upper surface 16 of the substrate 12 is a silica passivation layer 24.
  • the fuse assembly so far described is preferably in the form of a rectangular prism having parallel end planes 32 and end corners 34 bounding the end planes. End edges 36 of the fuse element contact portions 20 lie in the end planes 32.
  • conductive terminations 38 each composed of an inner layer 40 of nickel, chromium or the like, and an outer solder coating 42.
  • the inner layer is in contact with an end edge 36 of one of the contact portions 20 to provide an electrical connection between the terminations 38 and the opposed ends of the fuse element 18.
  • the terminations 38 include lands 44 extending around the corners 34 and along portions of the upper surface of the glass cover 28 and lower surface of the substrate 14.
  • a thick layer, for example, 0.5 to 4 mils, of printed glass may be used instead of the silica passivation layer 24 .
  • the application of printed glass is less expensive than, for example, chemical vapor deposition, and provides substantially improved yield, and therefore lower production costs.
  • printed glass significantly improves fuse voltage performance. For example, whereas a silica passivated fuse might be rated at 20 volts, a 32 volt rating and even higher can be achieved with a printed glass passivated fuse.
  • the inner layer 40 of each termination 38 may be composed of a thin deposit of copper or silver, or similar high conductivity metal, which may be applied by known techniques such as evaporation of sputtering. Such metals normally do not wet glass and so cannot be applied by dipping glass into molten metal.
  • the outer coating 42 over the copper or silver deposit 40 is composed of a layer of a low melting point metal or alloy such as tin or tin/lead somewhat thicker than the copper or silver deposit. The tin or tin/lead layer wets the copper or silver but does not wet glass.
  • the fuse has two fusing mechanisms, one electrical and the other thermal, the thin film fuse element 18 providing electrical protection while the leachable end termination 38 provides thermal protection.
  • the thin film fuse of the invention is highly reliable.
  • the protective cover plate is temperature stable and hermetic, thereby protecting the fuse element 18 when the fuse is exposed to high temperature and humidity environments.
  • the protective cover 26 is also electrically stable even under the extreme conditions which exist during fuse actuation. High insulation resistance (>1M ⁇ ) is consistently maintained after fuse actuation, even at circuit voltages of 125 V (50A maximum breaking current).
  • a substrate 50 comprising, for example, a 4-inch by 4-inch square glass plate having a thickness of about 20 mils, has upper and lower surfaces 52 and 54, respectively.
  • a conductive material preferably aluminum, is deposited, for example, by sputtering, on the upper surface 52 to form a uniform thin film having a thickness ranging, as already mentioned, from less than 0.6 microns to 4.5 microns or more, depending upon the rating of the fuse and other factors.
  • the conductive layer is patterned with a standard photoresist cover coat and is photoetched to define continuous, parallel rows 56-1, 56-2, . . . 56-N of alternating wide and narrow areas 58 and 60, respectively, which in the final products will form the contact portions and interconnecting fusible links of the fuse.
  • a standard photoresist cover coat is photoetched to define continuous, parallel rows 56-1, 56-2, . . . 56-N of alternating wide and narrow areas 58 and 60, respectively, which in the final products will form the contact portions and interconnecting fusible links of the fuse.
  • a passivation layer 62 of chemically vapor deposited silica or printed glass is Applied over the patterned conductive thin film and surrounding upper surface 52 of the substrate.
  • a glass cover 64 is secured over the passivation layer by means of a coating 66 of epoxy or like bonding and sealing agent.
  • the composite, multilayer fuse assembly thus formed is cut by a diamond saw or the like along parallel planes 68-1, 68-2, . . . 68-N (FIG. 4) perpendicular to the layers of the assembly and to the fuse element rows and so positioned as to bisect the wide areas 58 of the thin film patterns.
  • the result is a series of strips an example 70 of which is shown in FIG. 5. It will be seen that the cutting operation exposes the end edges 36 of the contact portions of adjacent fuse elements along end planar surfaces 72.
  • electrical terminations 73 are applied to the strip 70 by vapor depositing or sputtering a layer 74 of nickel or copper to fully cover the opposed planar surfaces 72 of the strip, including the end edges 36 of the fuse elements to thereby establish electrical continuity between the contact portions of the fuse and the nickel or copper termination layer 74.
  • the conductive layer is applied so as to extend around the corners 76 of the strip and along portions of the upper and lower surfaces of the strip to form lands 78.
  • the layer 74 is coated with a solder layer 80.
  • the strips 70 are cut transversely along parallel planes 82-1, 82-2, 82-3, etc., into individual fuses like that shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • FIG. 7 A further alternative method of fabricating the fuses of the present invention is illustrated in FIG. 7.
  • individual fuse elements 90 whose contact portions 92 are separated by spaces 94, are defined by the photoresist process.
  • the width of the spaces 94 separating the individual fuse elements is smaller than the thickness, T, of the cutting blade used to separate the assembly into strips. Accordingly, the cutting blade intercepts the margins of the contact portions 92 so as to assure that end edges of the contact portions are exposed along the cutting planes. All of the other steps of the fabrication method are as previously described.
  • the ability to define or program very accurately the width, length, thickness and conductivity of the fuse element results in minimal variability in fuse characteristics.
  • a large variety of fuse element designs and substrate types can be combined to create fuses having a range of speed characteristics. For example, fast fuses can be produced by using a low mass fuse element on a thermally isolated substrate, while slower fuse characteristics can be obtained from a combination of a high mass fuse element and a thermally conductive substrate.
